And yes, The Velvet Underground; was gonna mention them but then I&#39;d probably have to mention Hendrix, Stones, Iggy, Big Star and the whole kit and caboodle. Only one more guy I think deserves a mention, and that&#39;s Robyn Hitchcock. In case you don&#39;t know he&#39;s the only guy since the 60&#39;s/early 70&#39;s to be that good and, amazingly, he&#39;s managed to maintain that quality consistently throughout his long career. Bowie would have given his right nut to make an album like Love From London when he was sixty like Robyn did in 2013.Mr.Sensitivehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07008738174995796012noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8674518439839247830.post-47115051679316893682016-10-28T18:45:09.477-07:002016-10-28T18:45:09.477-07:00Best two bands after The Beatles.

In fact The Beach Boys are the only band who could, perhaps, be said to be their equal in a strictly musical sense, although The Beatles are obviously the ultimate band, when all things are considered. When asked about his favourite groups Jim Morrison named The Beach Boys, The Kinks and Love; quite a threesome, and given that information one can surely extrapolate from it The Beatles, so it goes without saying that Jim must have been into them just as much as everyone else was. Coincidentally, I would place The Doors instead of Love. So it goes 1) Beatles/Beach Boys, 2) Kinks/Doors. They don&#39;t make bands like that anymore, but their music is eternal.Mr.Sensitivehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07008738174995796012noreply@blogger.com
